Child of Pain By Jessica DeMaio Oh child please don’t cry Fade the tears Fade the Pain Look at your friends; look at your fears You can overcome You can win Oh child please don’t cry That bruise will fade That cut will heal The pain you will not always feel Strangers cry for my youth Sinners pray for my health Friends dream of my pain Oh child please I will mend your heart I will dry your tears I will warm your mind The time runs out The pain endures A part of me is gone I cry… So long Oh child please don’t cry Your smile warms my heart And your advice puts me to rest Oh child please lay your head down for sleep The pain will wash away There will be another day And you will no longer weep… Your secrets I will keep… Your pain I will mend Oh child believe me, For I am your friend… To everyone who has been there for me through the painful days… |

Nicely done. The poem allows some great feelings of comfort. It puts the mind and body at ease. It must have done you a lot of good to write it. |

Having people there is so important. I liked how the beginning said: "You can overcome You can win" And the ending was such a good part of this too, knowing people care about you can make you feel great.

There is nothing like having someone there to hold you and wipe away your tears. You describe this wonderfully. Thanks for sharing. "Where there is great love there are always miracles" -Cather "Love heals everything, and love is all there is"- Zukav |

This was great. Tons of emotion expressed within this poem. A wonderful read!  I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust. I'm in love with my shadow I admire it daily |
